1HE STATE QEAHOE.
The Slide Urnugc metal lu o'clock Thursday
mjrning,
Tlic report of Mr. E. L. llociic, chairman of
the executive committee, which hud been siit?miited
to n special committee nt the meeting on
Thursday, was reported on. With regard to cstablshing
a Grnnge newspaper the executive
committee recommended that tho paper proposed
by the State agricultural department should be
use<l by the Grange. ?
The committee also say that they find it impracticable
to. ntako any arrangements in tit*
matter of fertilizers, nnd recommended that it
be left in the hands of I lie business agent.
The committee congratulate the Order on the
great benefit resulting from tlie establishment'
of the Slate board of agriculture and urge the
ituportauce of placing a deputy in the field to
pttshtng lite principles of the Order.
Tho committee also urge tiio continuance and
extension of the St tc board of agriculture of
vital importance to the agricultural interests of
lite State.
They also recanttncud that the executive committee
in connection with the State agent be
instructed to nsccrlain nnd report as soon ns
practicable tlin Wit nniiililn >' ..t.

supplies, or money for the purchase of supplies,
for the use of Patrons for the year 1881.
The committee on finance made a favorable
eport on t o annual reports of the seoietary
md treasurer, which was addp'ted.
Mr. Quirk offered the following resolution,
ivhich was adopted :
Jiesolved, That the State Orange of SouthCariliua,
through its W. M., do hereby inomor^ilt.c
the National Grange to so change Article'VI
if the Constitution as to allow nn application
vhich has been rejected in a subordinate Grange
0 bo renewed at the option of the applicint.
Mr. l'arrott. from the committee to whom that
>art of the Worthy Master's address relating to
he establishment nnd support of a first-class
igricultural paper had been referred, submitted
1 report recommending that the Master and
Secretary of the Stale Urango bo authorized to
:o-opi-ratc with the State Agricural Society nnd
he Agricultural Bureau in such a manner ns
hey may deem best.
The report was adopted.
Mr. I'arrott submitted the report of tho comliiltce
on fertilisers proposing a plan for the
)urchase of fertilizers which provides that tho
lubordinate Granges report to tho financial
igeul through their secretaries, or through tho
ccrctaries of the lfomoua Granges, on or before
he summer meeting of the Grange, tho kind,
|tinlity and quautity of fertilizers which they
visit to purchase for cash for their use during
he year next succeeding; that the said reports
mving been received and consolidated, the
Inancial agent enter into negotiations for the
ttirchoae of fertilisers.
The oommittee submit a formula for tho manifacture
of fertilizers.
Tito nrnnaailintt nf P
lish a formula for making a fertilixcr was rcectcd
by tho committee, whose report was
ulopted.
Mr. A. S. Folder, tlio commercial agent of the
Grange, made his report. During the past year
le handled nearly 2,<r>00 bales of cotton for tho
ueinbers of the Order, Ltid furnished a large
[uantity of supplies. His roport was referred
0 the committee on the Good of the Order.
The Grange then took a recess until half-pnst
t o'clock.
Aftkuxoox Skssiox.
At the afternoon session Mr. U. S. Bedon oforcd
the following resolution, which was adopod
:
Aetolved. That hereafter the Master and Sccetary
of Subordinate Granges send their regu
ar omginal quarterly reports directly to the
duster and Secretary of the State Grattgo rcpoctirely
and remit dues also. But in all counies
dues also. But in all count ies where l'omoua
1 ranges arc at work said Masters ami Secrctaies
shall send duplicates of reports to the
espective officers of the same.

of the r.owly elected oilicera was fixed for
ho evening session, at 8 o'clock, to which
iour the Grange adjoured.
Evkninu Session.
At the evening session the question of appointing
a financial agent for the .State was disnissed
at length, but no final action was taken,
he further consideration of the matter being
nade the special order for this morning at 11
>' clock.
After the installation of the newly elected
iffloera with the usual ceremonies the Grange
uljourncd to 10 o'clock Friday morning.

The State Grange met at 10 o'clock yesterday,
morning.
Mr. Sojourner for the committee on the good
of the Order, reported that many, if not all,
of the difficulties which embarrass the organisation
arise from not having given sufficient attention
to the subject of education, temperance
and economy. The subject of education has
beeu too long ignored by the Orange, and if not
properly considered and acted upon, the chances
are that the members of this Order will continue
to be hewers of wood and drawers of water for
the rest of mankind.
The committee also say that "Intemperance
is the crying evil of the times, filling, as it does,
our prisons, lunatie and orphan asylums, necessitating
enormous taxes for their support, and
rendering once happy homes desolate and draping
the land in mourning, .and filling tho air
with the curses of the inebriate, the waitings of
widows and orphans; and when we reflect that
most of this trouble is caused by the use of ardent
spirits, wo fell that there is no mere impor
Unt lesson (hat our organisation can inculcate
than that of intemperance."
In tha practloe of true ecoqpmy the soQrct
of success, amVil' is IfyeroToje one of the
most important Iwom to be tedght by th<
Grange. . r
ihe rbWH?eCrfh? committee was adopted as I

IIkiii-Pimcku Advertising.?It is sometimes
questioned by merchants whether advertising
pays. The question will hardly bear discussion
in the light of the following facts, rntes for
transient advertisements being figured :
The Chicago Tribune, it i* said, for a column
a year receives $120,000; the New Vork Ilerald
receives for its lowest priced column $39,723,
and for tho highest $34*1,000; the New York
Tribune for its lowest $29,704, for its highest
$85,648; and these papers are never at a loss
for advertisements to till their columns. Their
patronage comes not from any dosire to assist
tho respective papers, but from business men
who find it profitable to advertise.?Exchange.
Thr Trocm.k in Store.?Though no notices of
contests have as yet been filed by Republican
candidates for Congress, from Southern States
during tho last campaign, it is understood that
within the time specified by law notice of contest
will be filed by the Republican candidate in
Delawnre, on the ground of illegal election laws.
In West Virginia the scat of Mr. Wilson will he
contested by tho Republican candidate in the
First District. Mr. Wilson's majority as
claimed was about 120. In Virginia a readjlister
candidate talks of contesting Cabell's Fifth
District. In North Carolina's First District,
Grandy, Uepublicwn. will contests Latham's
seal. In Mouth Carolina, under instructions,
it is understood, from the Natiuial Republican
Coinniitlee, tho live Democratic Representatives
will have contests. In Georgia's
First District, Collins, Republican, will contest
Black's scat. In Florida Bist-ce will again be a
contestant for the seat fiom the Second District.
In Alabama Lowe, Greenback Democrat, and
member of present Congress, will contest the

x THIRTY ACHES ENOUOH.
Mr. Editor : Now that the jroncral '
elections are over, aud the verdict ol' the
nation had been rendered through the bal
lot-box, (he publie uiind, especially in the 1
ftoutli, may calmly take hold of material '
intercut*, and thus neck to wre.-t from p.?l
itical defeat general prosperity, in a mate '
rial point ef view. We will remark, howcv 1
isr, that we have no sympathy whatever with
the advice of some .Southern newspapers
to a spirit of gloomy despair, that all is '
lost, and we of the .South have nothing that 1
we cau do. politically, but to offer ourselves 1
to the highest bidder, without regird to '
principles.' The principles which have '
over distinguished the two gre.it political
parties ol the country since the formation 1
jf the governiinuit. ar<? ??itl - ???'
when tbc passions engendered by the war 1
liave subsided, tho American people, true to I
the memory of a noble ancestry, will, as the 1
.1... ?? -
uwum vu viiu ~juiut graviiaie to (he great 1
constitutional landmarks of a national gov- '
eminent, confined strictly within constitu
ional limits, supreme in its orbit, and per !
fcctly harmonious and consistent with the I
lovcrciguty of the Stale government in 1
ill local affairs, and a complete subordina- 1
don of the military to the civil power of '
;ho government. There is too tnuch good 1
lease among the American people ever t>
illnw any third termer to seat himself in '
.he Presidential chair at Washington. On '
.his point the Western Republicans are as
conservative as the Deuiociats. Hence, we 1
should not despair, but caluily and resolute- '
iy bide our time, when the. tiuic-honored '
principles of tho National Democratic par- '
.y,though it may be under a different party (
mute, will pervade and coutrol all tho do? i
pnrtmcnt< of tho government.
In the ineaiititiio let us exert ourselves, 1
especially in the South, to develop and tin- !
prove the couutry in all her national iuter- 1
L'Sts. As agriculture is the basis of all na- '
tioual prosperity, in any couutry, wc should
endeavor to iuslill into all clases of our
community a profound respect aud interest
in the great business of agriculture.?
Hence, the last Anderson Agriu'tural l'air, 1
in some respects, developed an interest in
this matter never before sarpasscd, if, indeed,
ever equalled. Whilo there was a
falling off in the exhibits in some departments,
yet tho spirit manifested by the people
generally was highly commendable.?
The newly elected President, Mr. Provost,
sot out with the determination to popularize
the Fair Association, and one of '
'.lie first steps was to reduce the admission
lee to twenty five cents. The attendance
>u the last day of the Fair showed a duo j
ipprcciation on the part of the public.?

runners and mechanics, Tor the mutual ben- j
. fit of nil the iudustria! interests of our
County. Tho merchants took special interest
in the Fair?some by offering spcoial 1
premiums, nud all by making the last day
?f the Fair a gcueral holiday for sociul recreation
and enjoyment. Tho ladies were
there in great numbers to cheer and encourage
in the good work, nud to contribute
their mite to make tho Fair a complete success.
All tho professions, especially the
legal and medical, were represented in this
gathering of the sous aud daughters of
Anderson. Tho social features of these an- '
aual fairs are uot tho least recommcnda
tions to general patronage. Old citizens,
and youngor too, separated almost <mtirely
for the balance of the year, except as business
may bring them in passing contact on
salcsdays and court weeks, uiay, at least on
these festive occasions, enjoy a pleasant reunion,
which is of incalculable value to us
all. The old nud popular President, Mr.
Craytou, was present, and seemed to bo in
one of bis happiest moods, opening his
heart and house to the reception of friends,
and ready to encourairo all in thn ,rmnt
? t u " n"
work of recuperation, now the ono groat
duty of the hour, Hut what lias oil this
to do with the uniquo heading of t It is article
? Much every way, as you will presently
see.
Ouo of our old friends, n citizen of the
town of Auderson, oud largely engaged in
farming, at least since the war, suid to uie,
that thirty acres was enough for one man to
cultivate, and, as evidence, cited an instance
coining directly under his own knowledge.
A poor but industrious man desired to purchase
a home, aud found one of thirty three,
acres, which ho thought he could buy for
thrco hundred dollars, but did not have the
money, and sought aid from this public
spirited man. He said, "yes, go and buy
your home, and I will let you have the utoucy
to pay for it." The crop en that small
tract of land this year will be about eight
bales of cotton and ono hundred and fifty
bushels of corn, besides small grain. The injunction
which this liberal minded man lays
upon all his tenants is, fertilize well and work |
well. 1 no lirst step to bo taken to insure tlic
permnnent prosperity of the country is, divide
up llio farms into small tracts and sell
to good citizens. The greater the diffusion
of the real csluto of any country, the greater
tlio assurance of the perpetuity of its
institutions. Another gentleman, an excellent
practical farmer, living on Hencoop,
bolow Anderson, said to mo that he derived
greater benefit, in his profession as a farmor,
from these annual fairs than he could
in any other way for tho same money. So
it goes. Keep up tho interest in your annual
fnirs, stir up the granges, organize
your Anderson County farmers' allianco,
